Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Great Cool Fire Oil

On the Jizhou Plain, where the sun was waning, blood stained the land, and Dong Zhuo threw the dried fish on the ground with disgust on the banks of the Hanshui River.

"Damn, Yizhou people eat this all day long?" Dong Lao Er scolded a little angrily, he had a good temper when he was young, not to mention that now that he is over half a hundred, his temper is even hotter. Angrily spitting out fish bones from the lion's nose and wide mouth, Dong Zhuo squinted his eyes and said hatefully: "Lao Tzu must crush Sun Jian's bones and scatter ashes!" ”

For a whole month, Dong Zhuo ate fish for a whole month. Whether it's boiled in water, mixed into fish soup, cut into fillet, or grilled into dried fish. He's been eating the same way for a whole month.

But isn't it, Dong Zhuo is a little suspicious of life now, what kind of life did Lintao Marquis live? Not to mention the brocade clothes and jade food, Longdu has become the largest commercial metropolis in the northwest, that is, Luoyang is only half a point weak, and the businessmen who come and go from the south to the north do not know the prestige of the Marquis of Lintao, even if they are idle at home to visit and offer thousands of gold just to deliver a thorn, there are many people.

But now? In just one month, Dong Erye's weight of 300 catties was like sweating, and at least twenty catties flew away in a month, and the armor pieces on the stomach could be tied up when he breathed in.

How can you say the word pitiful!

All this is because Sun Jian's little bastard cut off Dong Erye's food, how can the second master not hate?

The two armies have been stalemate for a long time, and there has been no good news from Jingzhou, and the war on the banks of the Hanshui River has always tightened the spirit of these heroes of the Liang country...... There is only one reason for this, the defense line of the Yizhou people defending their homeland is simply full of holes! Dong Zhuo knew in his heart that this matter could not be blamed on the old man surnamed Yan, even if he replaced him Dong Zhongying with a group of newly recruited recruits, or in a land like Yizhou that has not been war-free for ten years, he will not do better.

Some time ago, when he went down the river and fought with Yan Yan, the general of Yizhou, he won a small victory, exchanging the lives of Sun Jian's 5,000 Jiangdong disciples with about 5,000 casualties, and the casualties on both sides were about the same. But more than 3,000 of these 5,000 miles are from Yizhou. First, the Yizhou army lured the Jiangdong army to get off the boat and pursue, and then Dong Zhuo led the warship to knock over their walkway parked at the mouth of the river.

When the soldiers of Yizhou were pursuing, someone actually ran upside down with a bamboo gun, and was suddenly counterattacked by the Jiangdong army on the bank of the river...... With such a robe, being able to kill the same damage is already Dong Zhuo's request for Buddha to burn incense.

In Dong Zhuo's view, only the soldiers and horses of Liangguo can be called the division of tigers and wolves in the three armies on the ground, and the military tradition that Ma Yue brought to Liangzhou is irreplaceable by anyone. As for the Jiangdong Army and the Yizhou Army, the land battle was a joke in Dong Laoer's eyes, even the Jiangdong Army under the leadership of Sun Jian was just a generation of brave jackals.

But when it comes to the water, people have become mixed river dragons!

After more than a month of fighting like this, Dong Zhuo completely understood that if he continued like this, he should lose.

This is the first time that he Dong Lao Er has fought on the water in the south, and the opponent is still a Jiangdong tiger like Sun Jian. He can't admit it, Sun Jian is fierce on the ground, and even more powerful on the water. Fighting water wars, the Jiangdong people who grew up on the banks of the big river are experts.

Dong Zhuo doesn't play with Sun Jian anymore!

Picking up the grilled fish from the ground with some pity, Dong Zhuo didn't care about the dust that fell on it, and blew it casually and tore it into strips along the texture of the fish and put it in his mouth. It is difficult for the big ships of Liangguo to approach the Jiangdong Clipper, and the grain ship has been burned by the Jiangdong people Four big ships, and it has only recently changed to transport grain from land, which means that it is useless for him to dislike it, and the fish and meat have to be eaten...... There are still many soldiers outside who can only eat one meal a day. None of them have any complaints, Dong Fat'er has something to say.

What's more, when Lao Tzu was suffering, he didn't eat anything...... Even his mother's horse grass is chewed fragrantly, not to mention that there is still serious food now.

Shaking his head, Dong Zhuo slowly put the light meat grilled into dried fish in his mouth and ate nothing left, looked up and saw the sun set, then he clapped his hands and sat up from the ground.

A small colonel ran on the bank of the river in the distance, and it should be Li Li, the nephew of Li Dao, the son of Li Dao's brother, who has now become a rising star in the Liangguo army. As for Li Wei's son, it is not good to call the couple expensive all day long, and he can't wait to keep it in his mouth, let alone fighting in the army, even being an official in the country is reluctant, and he is reluctant to let it go after staying in the state school for seven years.

Li Li was a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, wearing a military marquis armor and was also heroic, and walked up to Dong Zhuo's side and arched his hand: "General, the ballistas on the warship have been disassembled, and the fire oil has also filled the cabin. What about the next step, please show the general! ”

Dong Zhuo narrowed his eyes and nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Okay!" With my warrant, I will select 500 brave men who are good at swimming in the water from the army, and drive a warship to attack the Jiangdong Army Water Village tonight! ”

"No!" Li Li's expression on his face did not fluctuate in the slightest when he received this task of nine deaths and one life, and he turned around and left as promised, but was stopped by Dong Zhuo, patted his shoulder twice and said: "Come back alive, take the soldiers you chose, come back alive, and a certain family will send someone to meet you in a small boat by the river." ”

Li Li agreed again, Dong Zhuo watched the young cool man turn around and leave without hesitation, and secretly admired in his heart.

Such a dare to fight is the appearance of the old Liangzhou people, like Li Wei, who only knows how to protect the parents and children, and the children are afraid that they will not achieve anything in the future. How can a strong person grow up under the wings of his parents?

However, Dong Zhuo also understands Li Dao's mentality, just like he named his child Blunt when he was old, what should be worked hard, they all mentioned that the child had done enough, and they had not enjoyed the blessings, so they asked the child to enjoy it. The left and right are not the generations that have been around for hundreds of years, don't think about the things of the rich and noble for hundreds of generations, Ma Yue often talks about it, and a little wealth is peace.

Shaking his head, Dong Zhuo turned his throat and shouted: "Dong Huang, come over to Lao Tzu!" ”

When his nephew Dong Huang heard the call, he hurriedly ran over and asked, "Uncle, what's the matter with calling your nephew?" ”

Since Dong Yu has been in the family, Dong Huang's life has become more and more tense. In the past, he was raised by Dong Zhuo as his own son, and his temperament can be called a tyrant in Lintao, who doesn't know the prestige of Dong's son. But with Dong Dut, it's not good, people are the real sons of the Dong family, and they ...... What is it?

Anyone can endure poverty and contempt. But once you've enjoyed the things that don't belong to you, and then go back to your own kennel, who can stand it? This is how ambition comes from, just like now Dong Huang's lowered eyebrows and eyes always reveal a sense of madness, Dong Huang, who used to be a mediocre gun, has become an expert on the battlefield in the past ten years. Every time he goes to the battlefield, he can't wait to go straight to the enemy camp and cut off the head of the commander in exchange for his own promotion. Dong Zhuo, who has always been atmospheric, was afraid that the white-haired man would send the black-haired man, so he had to tie him to his side as a personal guard.

There is no way, who made Dong Zhuo not the commander of the Liang Kingdom, his uncle just relied on his military exploits to finally get the Marquis of Lintao, so what other way can he do besides his military exploits?

"Huang'er ordered the three armies, prepare horses and soldiers, tonight Dong wants to teach Jiangdong Zhuangzi to be very good at our Liangguo Iron Cavalry!"

Dong Zhuo thought clearly, if he can't win the water war, Sun Jian won't fight, what is the matter with the water army that his own soldiers and horses are not good at and the strongest water army in Jiangdong? The reason why the Jiangdong army only dared to cut off food but did not dare to rob the village was because Sun Jian knew very well that if he fought hard, he Jiangdong light soldiers would not be able to get benefits. But the more he didn't want to fight on land, the more Dong Zhuo wanted to fight with him on land!

Jiangdong people are accustomed to water warfare, and the soldiers fight lightly with rattan cards, and there are many Jiangdong soldiers who Dong Zhuo has seen with his own eyes who do not like to wear shoes and go into battle barefoot.

As early as a few days ago, he ordered Li Li to select 15 large ships to unload their ballistas, and the cabins were filled with oil, so that he would attack the Jiangdong army's water fortress by the river today. Going down the river, how many can burn him is a few, Dong Zhuo doesn't believe that he can't force those water monkeys in Jiangdong to the ground!

Dong Zhuo is really planning to do a big job, for this battle, he specially camped south of the Hanshui and ate fish for a long time, just to wait for Longdu to transport fire oil, and burn the Jiangdong Army fiercely!

Not only the hot oil, but also the big bags of iron clusters, the traps that hurt the feet were only a lot more, Dong Huang personally selected three hundred cavalrymen, each with two bags of iron clusters and traps on horseback, just waiting to put a trap on the Jiangdong army.

Sun Jian's former army water village was stationed on the east bank of the lower reaches of the Han River, and there were seven or eight water villages in succession, in order to prevent Dong Zhuo's warship from going downstream, he even pulled down the iron cable in the river, for fear that Dong Zhuo would steal the camp. But this time Dong Zhuo was not afraid, he didn't plan to come back properly with these warships at all, he just wanted to blow them up and give them to Sun Jian. It doesn't matter if you are killed by the iron cable, the left and right iron cables are not too far from the Jiangdong Water Village, and the distance of a few miles will be there in a few moments.

Dong Zhuo has tried, Ma Yue's fire oil is different from the fire oil in the world, not to mention burning on water, it can still float on water.

This is the benefit of reading more, Ban Gu wrote in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty that Gaonu County is combustible. asked Liu Bad to levy a craftsman to mine, and it turned out that he was really mined. Oil, a thing that is ahead of its time, is an excellent fire attack tool here.

Around...... There were also no cars to refuel him.

In addition to the water village, Sun Jian also has Lu Village, and the residence is in Fuling generation, when they received the news and rushed over, the water village was probably cleaned by Dong Zhuo.

With a cruel smile, Dong Zhuo stepped on his horse, and the fierce Liangguo scouts rushed out of the camp with bows and crossbows, and started a battle of wits and courage with the Jiangdong army's secret outpost ambushed in the forest...... The warships of the Liang Kingdom, which had unloaded their ballistae on the river, carried barrels and barrels of oil downstream, and marched downstream!
